This parallel to the popular base issue is notoriously condition sensitive and incredibly rare with only 99 copies created. The offered '98 Platinum Medallion Michael Jordan is serial stamped 51 of 99 and held within a respectable PSA 8 holder. Eye appeal is greater than the assigned grade, boasting beautiful surfaces and crisp edges around. Exceedingly light, near undetectable touches to the reverse right two corner tips is perhaps all that accounts for the harsh assessment. The photograph used for this card features 'His Airness' wearing his Retro Air Jordan 1s in his final appearance in a Bulls jersey at "The World's Most Famous Arena", Madison Square Garden. In this game, Jordan put on an all-time performance against the Knicks, pouring in 42 points, eight rebounds, six assists, three steals and one block, leading the Bulls to a 102-89 road win. All told, this is one of the most sought after Michael Jordan parallels in existence and a sound investment piece.
